Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 393 Chapter : The stroke of genius became a chess piece

What Lin Mo was most worried about happened.

With the autumn and winter socializing, the number of sick people in the army camp on the ferry began to increase sharply, from one or two thousand at the beginning to more than 10,000 now.

The general symptoms of these people are vomiting and diarrhea accompanied by fever, and the symptoms tend to increase.

The most terrible thing is that the accompanying medical officer could not immediately judge whether it was an epidemic or a simple acclimatization.

From the outside, it looks like acclimatization, but acclimatization is not usually accompanied by fever. If it is an epidemic, it will be troublesome. When this thing is contagious, it can engulf hundreds of thousands of troops in an instant.

"I heard someone said that Hua Tuo appeared in Jiangliu City a few days ago. I have already sent a horse to invite him."

In the Chinese army tent, Lu Bu frowned and paced back and forth, "However, Jiangliu City is more than two hundred miles away, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. I'm worried that by the time he comes, the situation will be out of control.

Now the officers and soldiers in the military camp are suffering from this disease. Everyone is in danger and their military morale is shaken. I would say that these medical officers are also useless. If something happens, I will have to remove their heads. "

"This has not happened to the navy, so I guess it is probably due to acclimatization."

Lin Mo was just speculating. It was better to listen to the medical officer for professional knowledge, but he still had to have basic coping methods. "Don't worry, Mr. Yuezhang. If it's just acclimatization, it will definitely be solved when Hua Tuo comes over."

If it is really an epidemic."

Lin Mo paused and then continued: "No matter what, let's treat it as an epidemic and prevent it."

"How to prevent it?" Lu Bu asked sideways, do you still know medical skills?

"I'll go talk to the medical officer." Lin Mo did not give a detailed explanation, but as a time traveler, he still knew some basic methods of cutting off infectious diseases.

The first is isolation measures. Those who are sick and those who are not sick must live separately. To this end, an isolation area must be created to prohibit unrelated people from approaching.

Furthermore, there is the issue of masks. Of course, it is impossible to make medical masks like those of later generations, but it is not difficult to reluctantly transform some masks with practical effects.

Finally, there is the issue of disinfection. Lin Mo has invented medical alcohol since the First World War in Huainan, but it is very poor and the output is very limited. It can barely meet the needs of these patients and caregivers.

Of course, alcohol alone might not be enough, so before departure, he also asked Zuorong to transport a large amount of Xiash, which was later known as lime.

This thing also has a disinfecting effect and is mainly used on their daily necessities, such as pots and pans.

Simple is simpler, but the effect should still be there. At least it can buy some time before Hua Tuo arrives, so that the disease will not spread too quickly.

Just after he finished instructing the medical officer what to do, he heard a bell ringing in the distance.

Five blasts, this is the signal to summon civil and military officials to the military tent for discussion. Lin Mo murmured: "I just came here not long ago, did something happen?"

In the Chinese army's tent, Lu Bu sat high on a commanding chair. Beside him were Jia Xu, Chen Gong, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Lu Su and others. The generals were Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Ma Chao, Pang De, Gan Ning, Xu Sheng, Wei Yan and others. .

Lin Mo was the last one to arrive. Seeing him walking in, Zhang Liao couldn't hide his proud look.

What made Lu Lin curious was that the old father-in-law also had a happy smile on his face. Did the two people reach any consensus?

Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao and said, "Okay, Wenyuan, everyone is here, you can talk."

Under everyone's suspicious gazes, Zhang Liao coughed twice. Where did he come from? Such a flawless and clever plan, so simply stated, was too weak, so he also looked at Lu Xun, "Bo Yan, what will happen today?" Report the battlefield situation to everyone."

"Here!"

Lu Xun came out to bow and said loudly: "Today we encountered the navy of Cao Sun and Liu in the Chibi area. Both sides were equally powerful. After a fierce battle, our army was defeated. One hundred and twenty-seven warships were damaged and more than 5,300 soldiers were killed. "

Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhang Liao in confusion.

No, you are so confident because you have won the battle, right? Did we hear wrongly?

Even Lin Mo scratched his head. My uncle must have held back his ultimate move.

Lu Xun then recounted the details on the battlefield one by one, and soon, the important detail about Lian Chuan was caught.

Zhao Yun frowned and said: "According to what Boyan said, connecting the warships with iron ropes can greatly increase the stability of the hull. It not only facilitates the warships to rush into the formation, but also allows the crossbowmen on the warships to increase their hit rate, so I It was the officers and soldiers who suffered the loss.

So, can we follow the same example and connect warships? "

"Hahaha, Zilong is indeed very clever!"

Just as everyone was deep in thought, Zhang Liao laughed loudly, "But! What I want is not just to connect two warships, I want to connect all the warships with iron ropes, and then lay wooden planks on the ships."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liao deliberately paused and then lowered his tone, "If you think about it carefully, this warship will be like flat ground. Not only can the naval officers and soldiers be able to shoot arrows accurately, but even our infantry and cavalry can board it." Ship combat!”

"What a brilliant idea! What a brilliant idea!"

Pound geared up excitedly, "The most courageous elements of our army are the infantry and cavalry. In the past, Taiwei and Sikong relied on their invincible infantry and cavalry to recover the ten states. If the infantry and cavalry can board ships and fight, our 400,000-strong army will surely Sweep the enemy army like rolling thunder!"

"Hahaha, Ling Ming said it well, General Zhang's plan is astonishing!"

Ma Chao had always been depressed because he was unable to fight due to seasickness. Now he was very happy after hearing such a clever plan. He laughed and said: "The iron rope and the ship are sweeping across the Yangtze River. General Zhang will definitely be recorded in the history of military strategists in one battle and be looked up to by future generations!"

"Wonderful, indeed wonderful."

"This method is tailor-made for our army. General Zhang's eyes are as bright as a torch."

All the generals in the rank of generals clapped their hands and applauded. This plan was an eye-opener for them. Even Chen Gong and Lu Su in the rank of civil servants nodded in agreement.

Gao Shun, who was bored, couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect Wen Yuan to know some art of war."

"Do you think everyone is as reckless as you?"

Zhang Liao looked like he had returned from Hedong and Hexi for thirty years to take revenge, and said arrogantly: "When I was in Anfeng, I taught you many times about the false, the true, and the right. If you have entered your heart, why would you do this!"

Gao Shun snorted coldly. He was so stingy. He just pushed him out the door eight years ago and he still holds a grudge to this day.

Lu Bu also nodded with satisfaction towards Zhang Liao. After all, if his infantry and cavalry could be used on the battlefield, it would be no joke. The word "crush" is not too much at all.

Unexpectedly, Wen Yuan came up with the plan to defeat the enemy.

Liao Shen, who was originally enjoying the adulation of others and feeling the improvement of his character, suddenly discovered that except for Chen Gong and Lu Su among the civil servants, Jia Xu, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu were silent.

What do you mean, do you have any doubts about my wonderful plan?

"You guys, what are you thinking? Why don't you say anything?" Zhang Liao wanted a flawless white jade that everyone above and below would agree with, and no flaws were allowed.

After several people looked at each other, Xu Shu stood up and said with cupped hands: "General Zhang's plan is indeed exquisite, but if the enemy attacks with fire, these ships will be burdened by the iron ropes and burn to ashes. , and so will the officers and men on the ship." "Hahaha, what do you mean?"

Zhang Liao laughed disapprovingly, pointed outside and said, "Sir, please look at the flag outside the tent."

Everyone looked around and looked at the fluttering flags. Zhang Liao continued: "Our army is in the north and the enemy is in the south. I heard from Boyan that the prevailing wind in the Yangtze River this season is northwest wind, but there is no southeast wind. How can they attack with fire? ? Wouldn’t it be possible to burn down one’s own warship?”

Hearing this, the soldiers laughed heartily.

They are eager to connect the ship. As long as the ship is connected, their military exploits will be guaranteed.

Xu Shu was still very upright and retorted without giving in: "General Zhang, it is true that the northwest wind prevails this season, but it does not mean that the southeast wind does not blow. The general knows that once the ship is connected, as long as they seize the opportunity, If we seize the southeast wind overnight, these hundreds of thousands of troops will be destroyed in one day."

Lu Xun, who was unaware of Zhang Liao's thoughts from beginning to end, had just learned about Zhang Liao's thoughts, but he did not judge them immediately at first. After Xu Shu finished speaking, he felt that he should stand up and speak, "General, what Mr. Yuan Zhi said is To be honest, I will be familiar with the wind direction in this area. Although southeasterly winds rarely occur, they are not completely absent.

In fact, the enemy's ships can still use tricks. If we encounter them again next time, our army can defeat the enemy with the red horse attack strategy. The clumsy ships and ships are controlled by the red horses, so we will win. "

Zhang Liao frowned. Maybe what they said was true, but in Zhang Liao's view, once the ship is successful, it can actually defeat the enemy in a short time. You can't worry about the rare southeast wind giving up the great opportunity.

But he did not argue with them. Liao Shen knew very well that it would be useless for any of you to refuse, and support would not be enough. He looked at Lin Mo, "Yunwen, what do you think of uncle's plan?"

All civil and military officials looked at Lin Mo. Some were excited, while others were nervous and worried. However, Lin Mo's thoughts seemed to be a little wandering, and he murmured: "I understand, it's awesome. I didn't expect that this plan could be carried out in this way. What a brilliant move. This time I am really convinced."

In Lin Mo's plan, Huang She was asked to cross the river and pretend to surrender. Of course, such trivial tricks could not deceive great talents like Cao Cao, Xun You and Zhuge Liang.

But his real intention was not here. Instead, he hoped to let Huang She play the role of Jiang Gan and let the coalition forces send people over to use a series of tricks to add bitterness.

Looking at the current situation, without Pang Tong, there is only one person suitable for the bitter meat plot and the serial plot, and that is Zhuge Liang, who has been humiliated and humiliated by the coalition forces.

Of course, there must be two people involved in the bitter meat scheme. One came to offer the iron chain and boat in the scheme, and the other deceived him into surrendering and setting the gate of the water village on fire.

Lin Mo thought, if Zhuge Liang comes, he will catch them first, and then catch them all when they pretend to surrender. Although the profit cannot be counted as defeating hundreds of thousands of coalition forces in one blow, catching Zhuge Liang is the biggest gain.

Furthermore, Lin Mo also wanted to create a situation where no matter what strategy you use, I can control it and psychologically destroy their defenses, causing their morale to fall again and again, and in the end they even win without a fight.

As for the time spent, it doesn't matter. Anyway, now that I have a lot of money, I have plenty of food and grass to spend with them, but they may not be able to afford it.

I just didn't expect that the other side did not go back to the track of history, but in this way, Zhang Liao deliberately made Zhang Liao aware of the plan of connecting the ships. In the end, he hoped that his side would connect the warships together, and then they would attack with fire.

Although it seems that there is no difference, in fact, there is a big difference inside.

In fact, this method can be used without leaving any trace compared to the trick of running around. Putting aside the issue of wind direction, it is not impossible for Lin Mo to be fooled if he didn't clearly know the history and character of the incident.

Lin Mo was analyzing the battle of wits and courage in the entire battle in his mind, but since he didn't mention Zhuge Liang by name, Liao Shen took it for granted that he was talking about himself. He laughed loudly and said, "Even I am a wise man." My nephew agrees, what else do you have to say!"

The old scumbag didn't say anything, he just glanced at Lin Mo, feeling a little weird.

When Pang Tong and Xu Shu still wanted to stand up and speak, Lin Mo's thoughts had stabilized. When he realized it, he was a little stunned. He raised his hands and said: "This matter needs to be discussed in a long term. Please go back first and let me think twice."

Wen Wen had always advised the military to fight to the death. In terms of military strategy, it was extremely rare for generals and counselors to have a head-on conflict anywhere, so they felt that this was just Lin Mo temporarily stabilizing the situation.

On the other hand, maybe he needs time to think carefully about which side makes more sense.

After the civil and military people bowed, they turned and retreated. Zhang Liao did not leave. He had to get a definite answer. This was related to what he cared most about, his ability and fame.

Not only did he not leave, but he also pulled down the old bastard who was about to leave.

The old bastard didn't speak just now. He thought it was normal for the old bastard not to speak, but he understood himself and his words had weight.

"Yunwen, there is no one else here. Tell me, what do you think? This time, the ship is expected to defeat the enemy within half a month. How can such a good opportunity be given up because of the rare southeast wind?

To use troops is to use danger, you said so yourself. "Zhang Liao asked with his head held high.

"What are you doing, do you want a military admonishment?" Looking at Liao Shen's virtue, he glanced at him.

Lin Mo knows his uncle's temperament very well. It's understandable if you want to show off, but this is really not the time. However, the old bastard hasn't left yet, so let him take the lead. "Wen He, tell him Bar."

"what?"

Jia Xu looked at Zhang Liao who was full of expectations with a confused expression, and then looked at Lin Mo who was a little depressed with a playful expression, and said with a smile: "Well, Wen Yuan's plan has to be said to be very subtle, but Yuan Zhi and Boyan The worry is not completely unreasonable, and it is difficult to do so for a while.”

"Nonsense, are you saying you won't say it?" Lin Mo knew he was going to play this trick.

"Speak Wen He, I want to hear the truth." Zhang Liao also added.

Jia Xu sighed helplessly, "Wen Yuan, Yuan Zhi and Boyan are telling the truth. The sky is unpredictable. We really can't gamble like this. The most important thing is that I suspect that you have fallen into someone else's scheme." ah."

Sure enough, this old bastard also noticed it, but kept silent.

"What's the trick?" Zhang Liao leaned back with a look of disbelief.

"Wenyuan might as well think about it from the perspective of the coalition forces. When the troops and supplies are absolutely weak, is there any way to win the battle?

There are only two ways, the first is food and grass, and the second is for us to connect the warships and use fire attack strategy.

In this battle, they tried their best to make full use of the company's advantages, but as Boyan said, those shortcomings were all covered up by them in the first battle. The purpose is to make you firmly believe that this company is the most suitable for us. way of fighting.

If our army really connects the ships with iron ropes and encounters a southeasterly wind, we will be completely defeated. By then, Wenyuan may really be famous in history, but it will be infamy. "

Lin Mo glanced at the old bastard. It was amazing. Although he didn't know what he was doing with the yellow shot to cross the river, he directly rejected the plan from a global perspective. At the same time, he did not forget to use Zhang Liao's most valued force. Come to threaten him.

The effect was very intuitive, and Zhang Liao immediately lowered his head and began to think deeply.

Of course, the first thing that came to mind was not the issue of his own infamy, but that since both Lin Mo and Jia Xu opposed it, it seemed that this matter was indeed undesirable, and he felt a huge sense of disappointment.

I originally thought it was my own magical stroke, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be the opponent's chess piece.

"Then, do you need to deal with it?" Looking at Zhang Liao's lonely appearance, Lu Bu still felt distressed and quickly changed the subject.

"Now that he has set up a stage."

Lin Mo clenched his chin and muttered: "Then let's sing a good show with them."

He was still a little depressed at not being able to earn Zhuge Liang back, but Lin Mo felt that it was probably Zhuge Liang who could devise such a clever strategy.

This time I broke it for him again and it was humiliating.

Well, you should be very angry, right?
